Erick, were in the car did you install them? Did you fit it in to the A-pillar, ashtray or what?

Who did the job for you? I'm also in DR.

i miss my S2 sometimes..... i dont miss how infinitely more difficult it is to mod the car though.

 

I'm working on this:

(S1 but it doesn't matter)

 

but that's what is soooooo much fun about having one

 

Any suggestion for series 2 gauge mount which fits triple 60mm guage ?

 

does the racing beat 3 pod dash panel ( ash tray ) fit the series 2? i can find talk on how the senders won't work but nothing on if the panel fits. sorry if its all over here but i can't find it

 

the panel will not fit. They were developing one for the S2 a while back (or at least they were looking for mule cars to test fit some) but i dont think it went anywhere

 

When I added my oil temperature, oil pressure and water temperature gauges, I used the 3M double sided tape and the gauge cups provided with the Prosport gauges on top of the stock cluster for maximum visibility on track and it's been good so far. This way it's removable as well and about the only complaint I'd have is that there is some glare at night, even with the hoods and it's right in my line of sight, so when I am driving at night, I unplug the fuse (I used add-a-fuses for them). I used an adapter to replace the oil drain plug for temp, the stock test port for pressure and a hose adapter for the water.

 

I am really a fan of custom mounting locations. Block8head's custom vent pod is the only panel mounted option I like (and I like it a lot). I think gauges near the center console and stick are too out of sight to be used to catch problems as they occur. I like the concept of keeping all the gauges right in your face, that way you can notice unusual activity without making it a point to look over at them.
